Minor MLB Transactions: 9/4/16

Red Sox right-hander William Cuevas has cleared waivers and been outrighted to Triple-A Pawtucket, Brian MacPherson of the Providence Journal was among those to tweet. Cuevas, whom the Red Sox designated for assignment Friday, has thrown just five of his 136 innings this year in the majors. The 25-year-old has compiled a 4.19 ERA, 5.84 K/9 and 3.09 BB/9 in 131 frames with Pawtucket.

Reds outfielder Kyle Waldrop has cleared waivers and been sent outright to Triple-A Louisville, according to a club announcement. Cincinnati designated Waldrop for assignment Friday. Since the Reds picked him in the 12th round of the 2010 draft, Waldrop has collected only 26 major plate appearances. Nearly all of his time, including the majority of 2016, has been spent in the minors. The 24-year-old, who shares a name with a former Twins pitcher, has hit a less-than-stellar .254/.302/.365 in 351 plate appearances with Louisville this season.
